If you’re hosting a backyard BBQ, and need to stab your weenies with sith-like precision — The Lightsaber BBQ Fork is here to help.
Designed on one end to look like Darth Vader’s weapon of choice, the other end can be used to penetrate anything on the grill for easy turning… to the dark side, that is. Nooooo!!!

If you need to rev up some dinner, the Hot Rod BBQ will help get you started.
The propane grill is made to look like a genuine V-8 engine — made from die-cast aluminum with a stainless steel grate. So, now you can burn those burgers even faster. But at least you’ll look good doing so, hot rod.
You have a BBQ-related design project, and you’re looking for the perfect font to get your point across… Grillography is here to help that along.
The typeface consists of actual grilled food items, either cut and formed into a desired letter, or simply taking advantage of the food’s natural shape. We’re looking at you, Pineapple O.
Grillography is brought to us by Oslo-based agency Anti, and was made to promote Scandinavian supermarket chain, Rimi. We assume to help sell their grill-friendly items.

After hockey players are done spearing opponents, and occasionally scoring goals with their hockey sticks… What happens to this discarded gear?
Hat Trick BBQ has the answer, with a set of tools for the grill made from genuine repurposed hockey sticks. Whether your backyard tool of choice is by Bauer, Reebok, or Easton — the stick utensils will make quick work of anything on the grill.
Especially if you overcooked those hockey pucks you call burgers again.

There was once a time when a cookbook was measured by the quality of recipes, the food styling, and the celebrity’s mug on the cover.
Now, with the recent development that is The Bible of Barbecue — every other cookbook is now inferior and should stop. Although it’s far from a traditional cookbook, containing no actual recipes, the BBQ bible will help produce a meal better than any celebrity-laden pile of pages.
Specific to preparing a grilled meal, the Bible comes apart at each stage of the cooking process. Beginning with a page that’s literally made from charcoal, it can be broken up to get the fire started. Page two is a fire starter, followed by a flame-fanner.
Progressing to chapter-two reveals an apron, foil, chopping board, and a page to sharpen your knives on. So, how does it end? With a page that’s a placemat, another that’s a serving tray, and a kitchen cloth.
The Biblia Definitiva Do Churrasco was created by Tramontina and JWT Brazil. It’s been made in limited quantities and offered to only a few “master barbecue chefs.” A simplified version will be available for the average backyard BBQer soon.
